Ht. 5'5", Start: 170 lb, Today: 160 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 115 lb - HAPPY THANKSGIVING! Well, I'm sick so not gonna be eating much at all today. I always get sick on Thanksgiving for some stupid reason. Anyways, been working extra hard on portion sizes and my diet soda problem, so far I've went a week and a half without it. Going to the movies with my best friend Justine (shes very overweight) and she bought a XL soda and the biggest bag of popcorn on the menu. I was really sad when she ate it all by herself. Shes 5'4, 230 lbs. It scares me because shes obese. Do you guys have any ideas on how to help her lose weight? Her parents are divorced and their both obese and not supportive. Thanks!
